Catholics for Change in Our Church
Pittsburgh, PA
July 2, 2024
At our monthly Masses, Catholics for Change in Our Church (CCOC) has always had woman share special reflections on the Scripture readings. These reflections are given after a short homily by the priest/celebrant. For St. Phoebe Day in 2023, that Mass had a strong focus on women’s role in the Church, particularly given that the celebration coincided with Labor Day which provided even more reason to focus on the amazing work that women do for our Church.

“As a college campus minister, diaconal ordination wouldn’t change how I encounter my students on the margins, but it would change how they encounter the Church through me. I wouldn’t be only Julia, their campus minister who tells them that God loves them unconditionally, but an official representative of a Church that loves them too.”

“Restoring the diaconate in my church, to include women, supports the hopes and desires of our whole community where I see a longing for both male and female deacons to serve. As soon as I had the opportunity to become an acolyte, I became one. If I had the opportunity to become a deacon, I similarly would rejoice at the opportunity!”
Jessica Kenny
Chaplain, ConnectEd, Alta-1 College, Perth, Western Australia

“If I were ordained a deacon, it would only be because I have accepted a call to a vocation that is equally accessible to women.“
